15 April 2024


At the constituent meeting of the interpack Advisory Board, the Chairman and his two deputies were confirmed in their offices. The Advisory Board is thus sending a clear signal of continuity and underlining the importance of interpack's close ties with the packaging industry.

Effectively representing the interests of the industry and acting as a driving force for innovation and growth - that is the aim of interpack. It will take place for the next time from May 7 to 13, 2026. On the way there, it will be actively supported by a 21-member trade fair advisory board made up of leading personalities from the packaging sector and the related process industry on the manufacturer and association side.

Markus Rustler, Managing Partner of Theegarten-Pactec GmbH, was re-elected President and thus Chairman of the committee at the constituent meeting on April 9, 2024. Christian Traumann, Managing Director of the Multivac Group, and Roland Straßburger, CEO of Schütz GmbH, were confirmed as Vice Presidents. All candidates were elected unanimously.

The first meeting of the trade fair advisory board marks the beginning of the concrete content preparation phase for the next edition of interpack in May 2026. The world's most important suppliers of packaging machines and processing technology, packaging materials, packaging materials and packaging aids, packaging production, finishing and packaging printing, marking and labelling technology as well as storage, logistics and transport technology are once again expected to exhibit. The main themes of the upcoming leading trade fair will be determined in the coming months.
